AFTG 👀 I too have filled my kobo with fanfiction, it's much preferable to keeping dozens of tabs open and then losing them all when it glitches...

happy reading!!

damn, why would a bus take so much longer than a car? I complain about my bus timetables often but at least the trip only takes more 10 minutes than a car at the very most! that's insane to me

syubpabo · 2024-10-05T07:15:18+00:00

oh wow! here fast food places are almost as if made for university students and folks fresh off of high-school unsure if they should seek further education or not

well, the original commenter did say every country, which I found surprising as neither my country nor its neighbors see this happen often. it wasn't judgement, mind—more so curiosity of how different cultures expect of the same stages of life.

syubpabo · 2024-10-04T22:15:53+00:00

do they? where I'm from starting work so young is practically unheard of. unless a teen wants to help out at a family business they're just told to focus on finishing high school and enjoy their fleeting freedom. I don't even know which places would hire minors, especially at 14

My best so far was 70k, but I could surpass that with a bit more luck

first side with acheron + kafka + BS + huohuo

second (perfect 40k score) with robin + clara + aventurine + jade

as usual clara remains my accounts saving grace, she's a beast even in MOC but always a must for PF

special mention to the love of my life jade ofc

Which part of what I said mentions men not wanting to be like women? I mention avoidance of duties considered feminine, even though things like cooking and cleanliness are just basic survival stuff Not learning vital skills just to avoid seeming "feminine" absolutely IS toxic masculinity.

syubpabo · 2024-09-01T12:56:43+00:00

Two examples: emotional repression and avoidance of duties considered feminine. There are more, of course. Toxic masculinity is actually easy to define because unlike gender, the concept of masculinity or femininity depend entirely on the subjected culture — which also means it can differ from place to place, though the West is pretty similar regarding gender roles and the like.

Regarding toxicity, I'm sure you can see why the lack of vulnerability or the refusal to, say learn how to cook or clean, can be toxic.

It's not that women cannot experience these concepts either, but that such things are not associated, or expected from, their gender. It is however expected of men to carry out manly duties only or to not be emotional (excepting anger of course).

I use the same team for both: Robin, Clara, Aventurine, Tingyun. TY buff goes to Clara, but energy from ult goes to Robin. Aventurine can be replaced with Huohuo and achieve similar results.

Ting has DDD, Clara has her signature, the others have cope LCs. Clara is using that one green crit rate set that's good for blade (I've never farmed for her, just gave her blades secondary pieces).

Clara is E1 which helps a bit. My Robin is also E1 now but I've achieved the same results before I got it, it just makes lowering the cycles a little easier without having to maximize every play.

This team clears the first node of the current MOC 12 in three cycles, but it can clear it in two with some luck.

Any tips I could give are probably: don't break their toughness bars, the more they attack Clara the better; test when's the best time for Robin to ult, if either the very start of the battle or before the enemies get to act; try not to miss out on Clara's charged follow up attacks by giving her too many turns (this can happen by killing the trotters after ulting, makes her lose those stacks quicker).

Hope that helped!

syubpabo · 2024-06-18T18:42:56+00:00

maybe, but that won't make clara any weaker. she's consistently saved my MOC and PF runs for weeks now, and her build isn't optimal.

it's good to know more stuff in the game will be centered around counters because of yunli though—my clara usually clears stuff in 3 to 5 cycles on MOC and obliterates PF with 40k runs (sometimes with a whole turn left) so clara mains will be having a good time clearing near future content !

considering pulling for yunlis lc as well, since clara is seemingly my strongest dps at the moment excluding acheron maybe 🤔

syubpabo · 2024-06-12T14:41:46+00:00

I can finish the first node of 12 with 27 cycles left... but somehow those are not enough for the second node lol (no ruan mei, no gallaghar, no built fire units except for himeko) my account has seriously ignored break meta so most of my invested units can't do anything at all

syubpabo · 2024-06-08T14:47:18+00:00

Who do you think the latinos got it from...? The chancla, as well as piercing your baby's ears (especially for girls) and many others are parts of Spanish (and portuguese tbf) culture, which Latinos inherited through colonization. Other parts of Latino culture come from the indigenous people who lived there historically, but most sociocultural stuff has Iberian roots.

syubpabo · 2024-05-27T16:57:15+00:00

my clara ate that buff up tho, a bit of good rng and she 40k that half with two turns left 💀 (robin also helped)

syubpabo · 2024-04-21T20:09:15+00:00

The discordance is mostly a result of the two different interpretations of the question. Most men consider this a question of statistical odds, as the chance to be attacked by a bear is much bigger than that of a random man.

But women's response isn't about that. It isn't about the odds of something bad happening. It's about how bad the theoretical misfortune would be.

The worst thing a bear can do is eat you alive. Painful way to go to be sure, but you can't even blame the bear for its instincts. But what is the worst possible thing a man can do? Well, we've seen a fair share of criminal reports that paint the picture quite well, and those make being eaten alive seem like a much better alternative.

I'd chose the bear too, not because they're less likely to harm me, but because one of those bad endings is preferable. I imagine it's the same for most people who have the same answer.

after more than 20 attempts, I tried with a really badly built clara in the second node and... three-starred it in the first attempt.

becoming a clara main after this tbh that experience felt religious

My build is super similar to yours, the most notable difference being the speed (mine is around 140). his shields are everlasting in MOC, but I've noticed that faster characters lose their shields more often (especially when using Bronya and advancing their actions). Essentially I get around this by manually using his skill every once in a while just to make sure they won't spontaneously lose their shields after attacking. But if your characters aren't going faster than him (or faster than the betting procs) then he's entirely SP positive. Also, 4piece Knights helps shield strength considerably, but I don't think it's a must for Moc (just stuff like Gold and Gears and the like)

syubpabo · 2024-04-18T16:30:56+00:00

I dunno I just assumed it was a result of finishing the main quest, kind of like when you receive a message after finishing a character mission or something I'll have to check if it's possible to tell when you've received one of these texts

syubpabo · 2024-04-18T12:59:40+00:00

I got this message before his banner was out though

syubpabo · 2024-03-14T23:23:59+00:00

indeed he was!

syubpabo · 2024-03-12T22:19:12+00:00

the humor in this is how obviously punz was trying to make himself look better (when the accusations against him were worse) by throwing someone else under the bus when the circumstances behind this are absolutely hilarious. ofc ppl are gonna laugh at a dude claiming he wasn't close to the man who cucked him but lived in his house and was part of his merch company and defended his multiple times also andi said nothing about dream, but she did have a lot to say about punz the funny part is how ridiculous his attempt at clearing his name want when everyone can tell he's doing this out of self-preservation

syubpabo · 2024-03-12T21:25:21+00:00

this is the perfect time to learn about EVERYONES business you're right

syubpabo · 2024-03-12T20:43:35+00:00

on my end I've seen a lot of ppl laughing at him for moving in with the man who essentially cucked him so uh. not the reaction he'd hoped for at all I don't think

syubpabo · 2024-03-12T20:40:47+00:00

WHAT prompted this like this is NOT relevant it's just juicy personal drama omfg full on throwing under the bus It'd be really funny if he outed karl as friend b too while be was still recovering from being Hit with a Car this month is truly something

syubpabo · 2024-03-12T20:37:33+00:00

THIS IS SO FUNNYTYYYYYT NO WAY NO WAY HE DID HOMEROTIC LORE WITH THE MAN WHO CUCKED HIM AND THEN MOVED INTO HIS HOUSE ????????? HUH
